If the code doesn’t compile, or is badly mangled, or uses the wrong APIs / imports or forgets something really important then it’s broken. I can use AI to inform my opinion and sometimes makes use of what it outputs but critically I know how to program and I know how to spot good and bad code.

I can’t speak for how you use it, but if you don’t have any real programmers and you’re iterating until something works then you could be producing junk and not know it. Maybe it doesn’t matter in your case if its a bunch for throwaway scripts and helpers but if you have actual code in production where money, lives, reputation, safety or security are at risk then it absolutely does.
